In one word – yes, there is! 

If you are following the industry reports then you must know that more than 500,000 jobs are lying vacant because there is a huge shortage of qualified talent in the industry.  It is also quite interesting to note that the market has almost double the number of jobs available than the required talented ML and AI professionals – just in case – there is someone out there.
